Himbo v Bimbo

 


Morning


It's National Arbor Day.
Go, hug a tree.




"Are you familiar with the term "himbo?" I try to keep up with the latest terms and what these acronyms stand for but I came across this word a couple of times in profiles on Bateworld. The dudes appear to be embracing the word, but when I asked one what it meant, I got no response. I googled it, but am wondering if there is more to the term."





I think a Himbo is the male version of Bimbo. Someone who isn't very intelligent, or at least pretends to be dumb, but is quite physically attractive and relies on appearance and charm to make their way through life.

For instance, this dude (found in a google image search) is a self-described Himbo.




There's even a genre of porn comics




and films.


Readers, what's your take?

Love's Labours

Morning

As Debra at She Who Seeks has mentioned, today is (purportedly) Shakespeare's birthday, born in 1564. In keeping with his perfect sense of timing, he (purportedly) died on the same date in 1616. And his work is still performed and adapted more than 400 years later. You may not think you know or like Shakespeare, but as the writing community might tell you: There are no themes or plots Shakespeare didn't already cover.




Some of his unfinished work (purportedly) includes  Love's Labours Won -- a sequel to Love's Labours Lost. My buddy is putting the finishing touches on a new stage comedy featuring Oberon, Puck, and Ariel, references many of Will's works, and is titled Love's Labors.

I wonder if it could be staged in the nude.








How fun would that be?
